The Healing Power of Hypnosis

Why Hypnosis ?

There are many reasons why one would choose hypnosis to improve emotional or physical health. The most important reason that comes to mind is safety. It seems that if you visit the doctor for anything these days, they will most likely give you an expensive prescription medication that could come with a series of potentially serious side effects. Not everybody needs this type of rigorous and stressful treatment. Sometimes the path to the greatest amount of healing can be found by becoming deeply in touch with your subconscious mind.

Hypnosis was first deemed medically valid by the American Medical Association in 1958. As recently as 1996, hypnosis has been described by the National Institutes of Health as being effective in reducing pain from cancer or other chronic conditions. Hypnosis is a real treatment that achieves real results in an unconventional and powerfully effective way. From depression to anxiety , from unhealthy habits to unhealthy thoughts, hypnosis can provide many healing benefits.

How does it Work?

Hypnosis works through introducing the client to a trance like state, which opens up the power of suggestion. During waking consciousness, we have little to no control over what goes on in our subconscious mind. Sometimes our subconscious is responsible for holding onto negative feelings that can cause real physical and emotional pain. When a hypnotherapist guides you to break down that wall, you are then free to begin releasing the bonds that have tied you up in a repetitive means of existence. Hypnosis is about influencing the mind to work with you, instead of against you.

When your mind enters a state of deep relaxation , such as hypnosis, the healing begins immediately as your brain releases a higher amount of endorphins and serotonin, which relieve stress and create that “pleasant feeling” that you usually feel after doing a rigorous workout. In fact, hypnosis is truly a workout of the mind, forging healthy new habits and ending destructive cycles of thought.

Applications and Benefits

The applications of healing hypnosis can range from simple relaxation techniques to rigorous mental and physical healing. Professionals such as dentists and obstetricians have been known to use hypnosis with their clients for a variety of uses. For example, patients who undergo hypnosis before an invasive surgery often suffer much less physical trauma as a result. One of the most commonly reported benefits of hypnotherapy is improved sleep, which occurs because a deep hypnotic trance state is extremely similar to REM sleep. Sometimes, all it takes is the powerful relaxation achieved during hypnosis to immediately create a sensation of being full of wellness and healing energy.

Hypnotherapy has been used for quitting smoking, weight management, and relaxation. While this process is useful for all of those, the most critical use of hypnotherapy is healing. Anybody suffering from psoriasis, asthma, cancer, eating disorders, or depression can find treatment and comfort through time tested hypnotherapy techniques. When you experience the self-empowerment that healing hypnotherapy offers, you will realize the hundreds of possibilities that hypnotization can offer you on the quest to better yourself.
